To soundtrack the summer solstice weekend here are the mysterious sounds from obscure Belgian multi-instrumentalist Joël Vandroogenbroeck (famous for playing synths in a cult 1970s Swiss psych rock band Brainticket).
This podcast explores Joël’s vast library music output with focus on his records for Coloursound label (set up in 1979 by jazz musician Gunter Greffenius), which released all sort of amazing wacky music covering all types of soundtrack'y & jazz stuff, but frequently venturing out into ambient, new age and experimental electronica.The artworks for most of their records are beautiful art-nouveau(ish) illustrations by Waltraud Greffenius.
The aesthetic spectrum covered in this curation of Vandroogenbroeck’s music is pretty extensive: early music, computer games sounds, prog, proto-house, synth boogie etc. What unites all of it is Joël’s propensity to create enchanted, but always pastoral, warm-sounding atmospheres even in the most outlandishly experimental music.
